NPFL club owners have condemned the attempted abduction of the League Management Company, LMC chairman, Shehu Dikko by security operatives, claiming to be acting on orders of the FCT Police Command.

The incident took place at the Nnamdi Azikwe airport in Abuja as Dikko and the delegation of of the victorious super eagles returned to Nigeria after a 2-1 win over Zambia in a 2018 world cup qualifier in Ndola.

The club owners claim the action of the security operatives negates the rule of law and due court process.

The LMC’s appeal against orders of a Jos High Court, demanding the reinstatement of Giwa FC into the league, will come up for hearing tomorrow at the Appeal Court in Jos.
